[c-nsp] Question about ip rtp header-compression

The problem is I'm not using NONE of the possible queuing strategies at all right now! So why the line can't just use the whole 2Mb for RTP?
My question wasn't about if you want to dedicate a specific bandwidth with some QoS policy then you'll be obviously limited to 75% or 80% of the total bandwidth, because the router needs to save some bandwidth for the rest. I'm talking about if there's a limitation on the bandwidth utilization that the ip rtp header-compression can use, even before implementing any queuing strategy or policy.

Well, Satellite IP is a fun task in itself to get right.

I'd suggest looking at QoS policy/class maps and getting yourself up to scratch
on the different methods of queueing that are available.

There's plenty of good documentation on QoS and the Cisco Way Of Doing It
on the Cisco website. Go look for policy-map and class-map.

Perhaps the changes on the queuing strategy or in the QoS in the past made the router go crazy and not to detect the real bandwidth, or there's some specific IOS limitations in order to keep some bandwidth available for other needs?
